JULIANNA RIOLINO DON'T PUT ME IN THE MIDDLE
‘Don't Put Me In The Middle’ is the latest effort from Julianna Riolino. The track leans into the style she has become known for - a swaying, countrified piece of pop completed by her idiosyncratic vocals, emotive slide guitar, and bursts of lush vocal harmony. “I wrote this song on tour in between long drives, sound-checks, performances and ego deaths,” she explains. “It’s always been a hum in my head, and bringing it to life was cathartic and healing. It is the decompression after the fracture. It’s melancholic, resolute and at peace.” The track is taken from the deluxe edition of her recent album, Echo in the Dust, which comes out on February 27th, 2026, via Moonwhistle Records. -Dan Peeke
